| Annotation | This paper describes the voluntary visiting service to older deaf people who attended the Weston-super-Mare Hospital and were issued with hearing aids through the National Health Service (NHS) from 1968 to 1970. The author discusses the effects of the service, and acknowledges the role of volunteers in relieving the isolation of older deaf people, and in helping to maintain a link with audiological and sociomedical departments at the hospital.
